Philip Michael Ondaatje, CC FRSL (born 12 September 1943), is a Sri Lanka-born Canadian poet, fiction writer, essayist, novelist, editor and filmmaker. He is the recipient of multiple literary awards such as the Governor General's Award, the Giller Prize, the Booker Prize, and the Prix Médicis étranger. Ondaatje is also an Officer of the Order of Canada, recognizing him as one of Canada's most renowned living authors. Ondaatje's literary career began with his poetry in 1967, publishing The Dainty Monsters, and then in 1970 the critically acclaimed The Collected Works of Billy the Kid. However, he is more recently recognized for his nationally and internationally successful novel The English Patient (1992), which was adapted into a film in 1996. In 2018, Ondaatje won the Golden Man Booker Prize for The English Patient. In addition to his literary writing, Ondaatje has been an important force in "fostering new Canadian writing" with two decades commitment to Coach House Press (around 1970-90), and his editorial credits on Canadian literary projects like the journal Brick, and the Long Poem Anthology (1979), among others.

Well, I have to say, the book is quite different from the movie. One can regard them as separated work. Though they both are based on the same plot and characters, the way they present the story, the pattern and tone, the main focus of the story telling are...

The final curtain is closing on the Second World War, and Hana, a nurse, stays behind in an abandoned Italian villa to tend to her only remaining patient. Rescued by Bedouins from a burning plane, he is English, anonymous, damaged beyond recognition and haunted by his memories of passion and betrayal. The only clue Hana has to his past is the one thing he clung on to through the fire? a copy of The Histories by Herodotus, covered with hand-written notes describing a painful and ultimately tragic love affair.
读到偏结尾处一章内的一句“call me by my name”下意识一愣,合理怀疑Aciman从Ondaatje这里偷了不少灵感。文字像诗又像散文,却被最终以小说形式出版,integration之下不乏肆意浪漫。另外还是要感叹一句post-war era真是出杰作的黄金年代啊,战争加爱情,辅以艺术家们的一点才气,好故事都被写尽。
评分碎片化的描写 让人抓狂 怀疑那些说喜欢这本书的人是否真的爱这本书 用枯燥艰涩来形容这本书最恰当不过
